When Vices Are Virtues
We often think of vices and virtues in black and white terms.
One thing is unilaterally a "good" thing while something else may always be considered undesirable.
But this is not always true.
One such instance is the idea of patience versus impatience.
We hear that, "all good things come to those who wait."
But we cannot be waiting forever.
Opportunities come and go. Our lives are not endless.
We must not just prepare but also proceed and pursue.
Impatience can be a virtue if it spurs us to break through the fear that holds us back.
